Constipation. Mechanisms and management of a common clinical problem.
Elliot DL, Watts WJ, Girard DE.
Many persons, including physicians, regard a "normal" bowel habit as being at least one bowel movement per day. In truth, the spectrum of normal covers anywhere from three movements per day to three or even less per week. This article outlines aspects of the history that will be most helpful in determining if constipation is indeed present. It also provides very useful information on the mechanisms of laxative action.

[Imperforate anus. Principles and methods of surgical treatment]
[Article in Dutch]
Leenders E.
Imperforate anal surgery is not only concerned with survival but also with the problem of incontinence. The ideal long term result must be fecal continence without constipation or fecal soiling. As a result of embryological studies new anatomical and physiological concepts form the basis of our present knowledge concerning diagnosis and surgical approach. A new classification of anorectal anomalies evolved in 1970. It is based on the anatomy of the visceral deformities in relation to the principal muscle of continence, the puborectalis part of the levator ani muscle. The primary divisions are those of the high rectal lesions above the levator muscle (supralevator), and those of the low anal lesions through the levator (translevator). The translevator type will be corrected through a perineal approach. The prognosis is excellent. The supralevator type needs a combined abdominoperineal operation. The continence prognosis of this type still raises problems. Only a good knowledge of these basic concepts and a careful dissection of every sphincteric muscle will ameliorate our results.

The surgical treatment of incapacitating constipation associated with idiopathic megacolon.
McCready RA, Beart RW Jr.
Results of the surgical treatment of idiopathic megacolon with incapacitating constipation in 23 patients are reviewed. The Swenson endorectal pull-through procedure, although it gave satisfactory results, was associated with high morbidity and resulted in the only death in this series. Anterior resection gave good results in six of eight patients. This procedure should give good results when the dilatation as seen on barium enema studies is confined to the rectosigmoid. However, for patients who have more extensive dilatation of the colon, extensive left hemicolectomy or total abdominal colectomy should be strongly considered, for these procedures have been associated with uniformly good results and little morbidity. There is little to recommend bilateral lumbar sympathectomy.
